Still in Kootenay, but a much more recent shot (only ten years old!). The Vermillion River runs parallel with Highway 93, the park's only highway and the route that connects it with Banff, in Alberta. One afternoon I found a pullout, and after a short walk, this view along the shoreline, looking north.
It was late August, sublime weather - these were the years when forest fire smoke was not a huge factor - and although I was on my way to the west coast to visit a sick friend, I camped in the park for two nights and hiked a couple of the shorter trails. That brought back memories. A few years earlier, I used Kootenay as the starting point for a fairly long backpacking trip into Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park. It's the most physically challenging way to access this spectacular area, but the up side was pretty special: nobody uses this route. So I had a couple nights of very quiet camping at increasingly dramatic locations as I got up out of the forest and into the high country. I hiked this trail three times, in 1979, 1988, and 1990, and made it all the way twice. In 1988 a massive early snowfall forced me to turn back. These were my glory days, and every time I drive Highway 93 through this park, I get to relive them!
I used my trusty old (from 1981) manual focus Nikon 24mm lens for this, with a polarizing filter to intensify the colours a little. It's a great lens; I still use it occasionally.

Kicking up clouds of dust, CECX (Cummins Inc.) Tier-4 "Clean Diesel" Demonstrator #1919 accelerates quickly out of Jasonville, Indiana with an INRD train for interchange with CSX at Terre Haute. Yes, it sounds a little like a bus, albeit a bigger, more powerful one. The locomotive runs with the QSK-95, Cummins' 16-cylinder 4400-hp prime mover.
A northbound Union Pacific grain train, starts in on its way down Pengra Pass under a light snowfall near Abernathy. This train is a joint effort between CN, BNSF, and UP. Grain loads originate somewhere in Alberta, and are run by the CN to Vancouver, BC where BNSF takes over and runs the train down to Lake Yard in Portland, OR. From Portland, UP runs the train down to Modesto, CA. The empty return trip is seen here. Run through power is quite common to find on these trains, though the beat up warbonnet was a nice surprise.
Scopwick Beck, which runs through the village of Scopwick, North Kesteven, Lincolnshire.
Scopwick is small village and civil parish in the district of North Kesteven, situated 6 miles south from Lincoln. The population of the civil parish at the 2011 census was 815. The parish includes Kirkby Green, a hamlet to the east of Scopwick. The village main road runs parallel to a narrow stream.
The village cemetery includes a War Graves site for airmen from RAF Coleby Grange and RAF Digby (originally RAF Scopwick), and includes that of the young Second World War poet and aviator John Gillespie Magee.
Part of the brick tower of Scopwick Tower Mill, which was built in 1827 and fell into disuse around 1912, remains standing.
59103 runs into Westbury from Fairwood Junction with train 7A17, the 10:24 Merehead Quarry to Acton Yards jumbo train, and is the last train of this trip, which has been a fine one, thanks to !Z10, particularly Andy Hoare for inception Eddie Holden for being Eddie Holden and for inviting me in and Nigel Capelle for driving me around on day one, and all the rest for having me around, Gavin Bland, Bruce Galloway, Thomas Harper, Mark Gowing and Rob Higgins.
Jumping back to 1958 we find N&W class J 611 working a local freight somewhere in Virginia as a young lady moves her 1943 Oliver Model 60 tractor across the farm . . . . .
In reality last Saturday October 5, 2019 during special runs on the Strasburg Railroad in Strasburg, Pennsylvania, doing a pretty good job working the time machine.

Cirencester Park is the new setting for Nic Fiddian-Green’s striking Still Water, 2019, a 16ft high piece of hand-beaten copper in the shape of a horse’s head. Situated at the brow of the 6-mile Broad Avenue that runs the length of the Park, the sculpture is open to view for all visitors.
Nic Fiddian-Green is Britain’s most accomplished equestrian sculptor recognised around the world for his large representations of the horse as well as more intimate forms. On loan from Sladmore Gallery, London, Still Water, 2019 reflects Cirencester Park’s affinity with, and long-standing love for, horses. Fittingly, the sculpture will be in place ahead of Cirencester Park Horse Trials on 24th, 25th and 26th March, adding a striking feature to the cross-country vistas.
More experimenting with layers and blending .. this is two photos taken at different shutter speeds layered together and blended with Overlay. Not completely happy with the background...but love the deatils in the petal on the left hand side ....
I'm going to miss India. The culture of India runs through my veins. The experiences; unforgettable. A kid running up to me, just to get their photo taken; priceless. Even though I have lived here for shorter than any other place ever, I have had better experiences than ever. They always say "hindsight 20/20" when people end up missing somewhere they hated to live, but I have some foresight 20/20, and I know I am going to miss everything about India. In these exact six months that I have lived here, I have made better friends than ever, taken better photos than ever, learned about Hinduism and a culture that seemed so different to ours. All of these experiences, I would never trade for anything. I have no regrets about India, except for not staying longer.
Everyone should look past the trash in the streets, and the spitting, and see that India is home to the nicest group of people on the planet, that will do anything and everything just to make you happy. Indians who we had just met a few weeks prior, would invite us to weddings, dinners, grill-outs, and gatherings. Their religion may seem ridiculous from a western point of view, but by befriending some Indians who were Hindus, and talking to them about their religion, I find it to be incredibly amazing. From proverb to proverb, they live in a better way because their religion is built on the sayings of what is right and wrong, and hospitality. They then share these with you, and rarely ever mistreat you.
Everyone should be able to experience this at least once. Unfortunately, going to see the Taj Mahal, and walking around the posh streets of Delhi doesn't get you to see the real India, but if, and when you do, you will fall in love with it just like I have.
I hope you have all enjoyed my photos from India. I still have some more photos I will post while I'm in Arizona, but unfortunately I won't be taking any more photos.
Hope you Enjoy :D

Mardale Beck, which runs into Haweswater reservoir in the Lake District, Cumbria, UK. This was near the start of walk we were aiming to complete up to Long Still and High Street, which top out at around 2,800 ft. We knew at the outset that the rain and low cloud might prevent a complete walk, but we did get some decent views over the first 1,900 ft or so before conceding to the thick cloud cover at higher elevations.
Explored [Nov 3, 2016]
The smell of the rain wakes up and starts running all over the city, like a playful kid. The scent runs and runs and goes through the buildings, through the windows, through the memories, through the dreams of those who remember themselves playing in the rain, splashing the light, cheating time.
CP hardly runs anything worthwhile anymore, and it’s gotten to the point even these GP20s are worth going for. Hearing one was on a loaded CWR was the pinnacle of Sunday. CP also rarely runs any southbounds via A5, let alone one with a standard cab (in daylight. Yes I know the Healy Job exists) so hearing it would run A5 was enough to get me down to Chicago itself for a click.

The Blackpool Tramway runs from Blackpool to Fleetwood on the Fylde Coast in Lancashire, England. The line dates back to 1885 and is one of the oldest electric tramways in the world. It is operated by Blackpool Transport Services (BTS) and runs for 18 km (11 miles).] It carried 4.9 million passengers in 2022/23. Wikipedia
The middle fork of Fitzhugh Creek runs through a 2100 acre wildlife preserve in Modoc County California. The preserve provides quality habitat for deer and pronghorn “antelope,” as well as a host of birds and, I have to believe, black bears as it just looks like bear country to me. On this particular day I was in the middle of a 4 day “me time” camping trip, just generally trying to disconnect for a bit. Modoc County is probably the most remote county in the nation’s most populated state so it was just what the doctor ordered. I didn’t see much wildlife on this day but I also didn’t see any humans for about 6 hours as I explored around the back country. I’d never heard of this creek until I came to it that late spring day, and I probably spent a half hour just soaking it in under mid-day light that was nicely diffused by some high overcast.
Between the hills and the wild grass a river runs through it. If you look closely you'll spot the green channel marker.
I've borrowed the title from Norman Maclean's moving personal novel, "A River Runs Through It". In 1992 it was made into a hit film:
Upper Antelope Canyon is called Tsé bighánílíní, 'the place where water runs through rocks' by the Navajo. Despite improved warning and safety systems, the risks of injury from flash floods still exists. On July 30, 2010, several tourists were stranded on a ledge when two flash floods occurred. Some of them were rescued and some had to wait for the flood waters to recede.
Barbondale runs north-east from the Lune Valley near Kirkby Lonsdale along to Dent Dale, just about seven miles. Although it is within the county of Cumbria all of it is within the boundaries of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The stream that runs through the dale is known as Barkin Beck, and flows south-west to join the River Lune.

US191 runs through the high country along the east side of Flaming Gorge reservoir through Utah and Wyoming. The wind and harsh winter is legendary there so snow fences line the road to create snow drifts next to, instead of on, the road. A lot of the fences look like they will need a lot of work before winter arrives. HFF
Actually many rivers run through it as it gets a lot of run off from the mountains behind it.
As I not a Welsh speaker it took me many attempts to even try to pronounce the town the river runs through: Dolgellau
A rusty and crusty old timer, but because of the "A Grade mechanic" (Aussie speak for a darn good tradesman) it should run like a new Singer Sewing Machine! McCormick International tractor at a service station in Redcliffe, SE Queensland.
It runs through my veins now
All because of you, honey.
I wish and waited
Waited.
Such a wasted word.
"I'll wait for you."
"Wait for me."
Disappointment.
I thought you were better than that.
Wrong thoughts. Disappointment.

66139 runs through the evening shadows at Oldmixon on the Weston-super-Mare avoiding line with 6G71 16.25 Walsall to Exeter Riverside New Yard China Clay empties. Running on a Monday evening instead of a Thursday night because of the Bank Holiday weekend. Monday 30th May 2022.
The annual festive market and small fairground has opened - very controversial this year, in Edinburgh as the company who runs it and the council who rubber stamp it has expanded it to ridiculous proportions. It's not so much the increased size, many residents and the local heritage societies are outraged that it now covers almost the entire east Princes Street Gardens, meaning a huge, green public space is essentially covered by this for weeks instead of being the public park it is meant to be, and many are not happy about this (doesn't help that the organisers and the council somehow didn't bother to secure legal planning permission ahead of opening either!). None of which will bother visitors and tourists, but it has set the cat among the pigeons for residents!
The ferry runs for home into Tynemouth harbour in a blaze of gold, the waves race to the shore and a lone bird flies before them. Another golden dawn on the North East coast.
A wonderful ramble this morning in the best company. A grey start burst suddenly into a quick glory and we all were taking the same shots. This one from the point and shoot. I took some as first attempts with d40 but have to figure out how to get the raw open before I can post any.
i was fascinated by the lone bird, I've been including one in a few shots recently . Big thank you to everyone, great toggery, great craic, great breakfast after:)
you must see everyone's shots,

This footpath runs from the sand dunes along the North Norfolk coast through the salt marshes to the village of Thornham, which can be seen in the distance. In past times, Thornham was an important port, and coal was brought by sailing vessel down the coast from Newcastle, while grain was sent in the other direction. Coal was temporarily stored in the red-roofed barn on the left, which is thought to be some 300 years old. The final shipment took place in 1914, and trains then took over, with horse-drawn carts bringing the coal from the station at Hunstanton.
M-B 901 runs southbound with the loads through downtown Wilton, passing the runaround and former freight house on April 22, 2024. The Hillsboro Branch has gotten some much needed upgrades in the past year, bringing the majority (if not the entirety) of CSX's portion back up to a solid 10 MPH.
